What color is Farrow and Ball Eddy?

Farrow and Ball Eddy 301 is a pale, muted grey-green with a soft yellowed cast that keeps it from feeling icy. In daylight, its gentle sage undertone is more noticeable, while warmer evening light can draw it toward a quiet putty or light khaki grey. The low saturation makes it an easy wall color for kitchens, bedrooms, and hallways where a stark white might feel too sharp. Pair Eddy with chalky off-whites, natural oak, aged brass, linen, and darker olive or charcoal accents for contrast. It also has enough restraint for painted cabinetry, especially in rooms with stone counters or warm timber floors.

Light Reflectance Value scale illustration

Light Reflectance Value measures the amount of visible and usable light that reflects from a painted surface.
Simply put, the higher the LRV of a paint color, the brighter the room you will get.
The scale goes from 0% (absolute black, absorbing all light) to 100% (pure white, reflecting all light).

Act like a pro: When choosing paint with an LRV of 58.56%, pay attention to your bulbs' brightness. Light brightness is measured in lumens. The lower the paint's LRV, the higher lumen level you need. Every square foot of room needs at least 40 lumens. That means for a 200 ft2 living room you'll need about 8000 lumens of light – e.g., eight 1000 lm bulbs.
